Youth Football Uniforms Article - You Can Only Win as a Team

By Kid Reporter: Yianni

Yianni and teammates prepare for their game.

 

There are many qualities you need to be a good teammate. You must be able to help your teammates overcome the adversity of their mistakes, no matter how big they are.

You can't yell at someone when they are trying hard. If they are trying their best, then that is all you can ask of a teammate.

You must be able to always have your teammates' backs in any situation. Sometimes when one of my teammates makes an error, I will try harder to help make up for it.

Coaching Youth Football: Don’t Stop Teaching Fundamentals

Don't Stop Teaching Youth Football Fundamentals

 

By Marty Gitlin
Special to PlaySportsTV
 
Larry Pinto has seen it before and it makes him cringe.

The highly successful football coach at Mayfield High School in Cleveland believes many youth football coaches stop teaching fundamentals too early.

Pinto thinks football fundamentals should remain a staple of practices for quite a while so young players will learn how to play football the right way. But he’s watched as coaches have scrapped pointing out the basics in favor of starting scrimmages that their players are simply not prepared to play.
 
“A lot of coaches, maybe three or four weeks into teaching beginners will go into scrimmage situations,” Pinto said. “But you have to stick with the blocking and the tackling and how to throw and ball and how to catch the ball. You need to work on pursuit angle drills for different positions.”

Encourage Youth Football Players with Positive Feedback

Today on Youth Football Uniforms, we will be discussing about the importance of providing positive feedback to encourage our youth football players...

Youth football coaches must encourage players to feel good about their contributions

By Marty Gitlin
Special to PlaySportsTV
 
Every player on a youth football team should feel he is an important part of the team’s success, even though they might not share the same abilities and talents.
 
Longtime and highly successful coach Russ Jacques of the Strongsville High School football team, in Strongsville, Ohio, fully believes this coaching strategy.
 
Jacques understands that for younger kids to have the desire to continue competing in football, they must feel good about themselves. And they can’t feel good about themselves with a football inferiority complex.

“A coach has to feel his way around that situation,” Jacques says. “But every kid has to get some positive feedback. If he’s not the best player physically, maybe he can be the kid who leads calisthenics or the kid who gets a little head start on a relay race and wins that. You want him to go home at the end of the day and tell his Dad, ‘Hey, Dad, I was the guy that led calisthenics today!’  You have to be positive.”

Keep the Passing Game Basic

Coaching Youth Football: Keep the Passing Game Basic

 

On the lowel levels of youth football, it’s conceivable for a team to win championships without completing a high percentage of passes or even a high number of passes. Teams usually rely on running the ball for the majority of their plays.

There comes a time, though, when teams begin to use more pass plays, and it’s a football coach’s responsibility to keep all of the pressure off his ever-developing quarterback. Keep the passing plays basic and get contributions from the entire offense, recommends Steve Norcio, who has coached four teams from the White Oak (Md.) Warriors football program to Pop Warner national championships, most recently in 2008 on the Junior Pee Wee level (10- to 11-year-olds).

History Of Youth Football - The Reason Why There Are Youth Football Uniforms

While I was reading a page from my favorite site, I saw a post about kids who really love playing football. Then suddenly, while I am at the mid part of the article, an idea came into my mind. What's the idea, you ask? Well, since I have a website that talks about youth football uniforms, why not post "other" contents related to football itself? Great idea? Sure it is!

Now to start off, let's talk about its history-- where did youth and high school football came from... Let's take this article from the trusted source Wikipedia

Youth and High School Football

American football is a popular participatory sport among youth. One of the earliest youth football organizations was founded in Philadelphia, in 1929, as the Junior Football Conference. Organizer Joe Tomlin started the league to provide activities and guidance for teenage boys who were vandalizing the factory he owned. The original four-team league expanded to sixteen teams in 1933 when Pop Warner, who had just been hired as the new coach of the Temple University football team, agreed to give a lecture to the boys in the league. In his honor, the league was renamed the Pop Warner Conference.
